McGahee is a Raven according to ESPN
The Ravens and Bills agreed to a trade Thursday that will send running back Willis McGahee to Baltimore in exchange for the team's third and seventh-round picks in this year's draft, along with the Ravens' third-round pick in 2008, league sources tell ESPN.com's Michael Smith.

Very exciting....not sure about 2 third round picks though. Oh well. Hopefully we'll get a 3rd round comp for AD next year.

Whaddaya think? The Ravens feel like they suck at 3rd rd picks so what the heck?
Re: McGahee is a Raven according to ESPN
I keep coming back to McNair for a fourth and this exchange seems a bit rich. But I do think the Ravens are already counting on compensatory picks for this year and next so it seems ok at this point.
Of course it all hinges on McGahee outperforming Jamal and the terms of the contract once they are announced.
Re: McGahee is a Raven according to ESPN
We'll more than likely get a 3rd round pick in 2008 for AD as AD signed one of the top five contracts. As for this year's 3rd, it is at the bottom of the round, so it is almost a 4th round pick. As stated, we typically don't do well with our 3rd and 4th round pick. When you fill out your draft boards, just insert Willis MaGahee's name as the 3rd round pick. I would take Willis over any RB not named Adrian Peterson in this draft, and that includes Lynch.
We have our RB for the next 4 years (especially beyond the 30 and over purge).
Look for us to sign FB, Daniel Shelton.
